About Me

Brainerd stands it up and burns it out. Laced with both liltiing melodies and ear-crushing rhythms, Brainerd has earned their reputation as musical pugilists skating on thin ice while hammering the upbeat until it breaks. Preaching the gospel of the streets. They conquer subject matter diverse as multiple suicides, ghosts, one-legged-bartender-hookers and five-legged-dogs. Brainerd is not for the squeamish and never has been. Straight-up rock and roll from the crooked side of the street, dope-sick, heart-broke, and sick of life with a silver lining, a tinge of hope. This band looks unblinkingly into the eye of the beast and smiles. Children of the street be strong, Brainerd has arrived... you are not alone.

R.I.P. X-Brainerd Members.

First, we had to kick out Tony, our first drummer because he was a stark raving lunatic drunk (and I can't really say much better of ourselves) but it was for the best. He went on to form the SKINTONE...
